The Gambling Addict | |
| Stumptown (2019) / int_11630eaa | comment |
The Gambling Addict: Dex. She's already in debt to Sue Lynn's casino when the pilot starts, to the tune of $11,000. In the pilot itself, she scores big at craps only to lose her entire winnings on the very next roll. Hollis lampshades her lack of self-control right afterward. | |

| Stumptown (2019) / int_27ba9b64 | comment |
What Did I Do Last Night?: At the end of "The Other Woman", Dex, after a hard night of drinking and gambling, wakes up in bed with a naked Liz. She spends much of the next episode, "Dex Education", trying to figure out exactly what happened. She ultimately discovers that Liz got her drunk and then slipped into her bed to convince her that they slept together, as part of a ploy to get Grey to cut Dex out of his life. | |

Actor Allusion | |
| Stumptown (2019) / int_392372f9 | comment |
Actor Allusion: Jake Johnson as a bar owner. Donal Logue as a sleazy jaded PI is not too far removed from his role in Gotham as a sleazy, jaded corrupt cop. There's more than one reference to Cobie Smulders' previous series, How I Met Your Mother: Dex's Mustang has a tape stuck in the player, just like Marshall Eriksen's beloved Fiero, the difference being that Marshall's tape only played "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" by The Proclaimers, while Dex's fires off several random tunes from a mix tape. The second episode deals with a man being duped by a con artist because he thought she was "the one", who waxes poetically about the universe giving him a sign that this may be his one true love. Sounds an awful lot like Ted, does it not? At the end of "At All Costs: The Conrad Costas Chronicles", Dex and Grey sit on the beach to talk, which is set to Band of Horses' "The Funeral". A similar scene featuring Ted and Robin (Smulders' character) happened during a Season 9 episode of HIMYM, while that same song had also being used for the ending scene of Season 8's premiere. | |

Blatant Lies: Dex's excuse for hitting Artie Banks' car with a crowbar is that she mixed up her Mustang (a beat-up 1992 model) with Artie's Mustang (a '70s pony car model). When asked why she was trying to break her own car, she claims she read on the internet that her Mustang was the only model year with a piñata hidden inside it. Luckily Cosgrove doesn't like Artie and so she "believes" Dex's story. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold | |
| Stumptown (2019) / int_4781adbb | comment |
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Artie zigzags this one pretty hard. He agrees to let Dex apprentice under him, then backstabs her and their client for more money after faking a sob story about a drug addict daughter that got Dex to trust him. Nothing Dex does afterward to try and sway him makes a dent until he watches the client lose custody of her infant daughter, and he confesses to Dex that his daughter had actually died in infancy after an experimental therapy failed; this along with the loss of his police career (he stole the money for her procedure from the evidence room) caused him to concentrate on looking out for himself above everything else. He gets Dex her P.I.'s license and seems to have been sincere, but Dex is still unsure whether to fully trust him. Sue-Lynn is a hardass most of the time, but she is gentle with Ansel, has helped Dex on more than one occasion, and in "The Past and the Furious", she helps reunite Jeremy Stevens with his Native family. | |

Maligned Mixed Marriage: Part of the reason Sue-Lynn strongly disapproved of Dex being with her son Benny, as she wanted him to marry within the tribe. In "The Past and the Furious", Dex's investigation into a veteran's birth parents reveals that he was taken from his Native-American birth mother because a racist church secretary objected to his mixed heritage and felt that a "good Christian" family was the only way to "save" him. | |

Shell-Shocked Veteran | |
| Stumptown (2019) / int_7a143509 | comment |
Shell-Shocked Veteran: Dex served several tours in Afghanistan. The death of her true love Benny left her with very bad PTSD (since she blames herself for him joining the military), causing her to have flashbacks. It's also notable that she never carries a gun, likely for this reason. | |

Dating Catwoman: In "The Dex Factor", Dex's new love interest happens to be a hitwoman who's after the gang that Grey has infiltrated. Likewise, Gray ends up falling for Max(ine), the mechanic for the car theft gang he infiltrates. Gray tips her off to the bust going down and helps her escape to the reservation, where the Portland Police Bureau doesn't have jurisdiction. | |

How We Got Here | |
| Stumptown (2019) / int_80251be3 | comment |
How We Got Here: It is a recurring theme for episodes to open with Dex in some crazy situation and then flashing back to how it all started. The pilot opens with two shady guys in a car driving somewhere and someone clearly locked in the trunk. Dex then pushes her way out of the trunk through the back seat and attacks the men with the car still in motion. The driver loses control, the car spins out and goes airborne. We then jump back three days to see the events that led up to this. | |

She lets him talk a bit about his experience before cutting him off and listing the holes in his story: his dog tags don't match the name on his credit card, no one calls Afghanistan "the 'Stan," and he doesn't know what language is spoken there. | |

Turns out she lied to try and separate them and was intending for that to happen because she thinks Grey and Dex's friendship is keeping both of them from having meaningful relationships with other people. | |

They broke up, Dex joined the Marines and Benny married a woman his mother approved of. However, Benny's marriage broke up and he defied his mother by joining the Army. He deployed to Afghanistan and while on leave he went looking for Dex with an engagement ring in his pocket. Before he could reach her, his vehicle hit a bomb and Benny was killed. Subverted with Nina and Michael. They try to elope and get away from Sue Lynn but are stopped by Dex who feels really guilty about it. However, it was all just part of Michael's plan to have Nina kidnapped and hold her for ransom. | |

Spotting the Thread | |
| Stumptown (2019) / int_ec0ce986 | comment |
Spotting the Thread: In one of the first scenes, Dex is hit on by a guy who claims to be an Afghanistan vet, but she easily notices holes in his story, like the fact that he doesn't know what Pashto is. Part of her Sherlock Scan, above. | |

Addiction Displacement | |
| Stumptown (2019) / int_ed3dc201 | comment |
Addiction Displacement: In "Dex, Drugs and Rock & Roll", when Dex's ex-girlfriend Fiona offers her drugs, Dex refuses and says she doesn't do that anymore. Since she frequently drinks and gambles excessively, one can infer she replaced one addiction with another. | |

Artistic License – Cars | |
| Stumptown (2019) / int_eea06f9a | comment |
Artistic License – Cars: In the pilot, multiple people are kept in the trunk of Dex's Mustang. However, that model of Mustang, the 1992 GT, is a hatchback and therefore doesn't have an actual trunk, just a storage space behind the rear seats. | |

The Alleged Car | |
| Stumptown (2019) / int_f237981e | comment |
The Alleged Car: Dex's car is a beat-up old piece of crap Mustang with a cassette player that has a habit of turning itself on at inopportune times. | |

Shown Their Work | |

Shown Their Work: It's hard to see since the scene is dark, but Dex is wearing appropriate MARPAT camouflage in the Afghanistan flashbacks, and even has correct collar pins which indicate she's a corporal. Dex's uniform seen in episode 8 is highly accurate, down to her awards being both real and in the correct order of precedence. Episode 9 name-checks both Dante's, a popular Portland nightclub, and the New Season school references New Seasons, a Whole Foods-esque upscale grocery chain in Portland. Averted, though, with a junkyard described as being located in 920 SE Belmont. 920 SE Belmont is in a hipster-yuppie neighborhood in Portland; a junkyard would never be there, unless it's an ironic junkyard. Averted in "Reality Checks Don't Bounce" - Hoffman is seen pumping gas in one scene. Self-service is banned in Oregon (although it has been temporarily allowed during the COVID-19 pandemic). In "Dirty Dexy Money", Dex works for the owner of Hold the Meat, a vegan strip club – this is a gender-flipped version of Casa Diablo, a well-known Portland vegan strip club. The props department snagged authentic Portland recycling bins (yellow with blue printing), seen behind the Bad Alibi in "'Til Dex Do Us Part". | |
